Re: one of the best firsts sets the dead ever played? |
Yeah it's definitely hard to beat, for sure one of the better first sets of the year. Sometimes a bit frantically paced, as are most 74 shows (esp these coke-feuled Europe shows), but lots of fun. I always liked the short-lived arrangement of FOTD found here. This one is really an all-around fine show. Any show that even remotely alludes to Caution is a great show in my book.
I'm especially enjoying this as-don't ask me why, it's a long story-I am trying to trudge my way through the St. Louis shows of July 1995. I gave up while reading this thread. A 70's To Lay Me Down? Set closing 20+ plus minute 74 Playin? '74 versions of Eyes, Ship of Fools, AND a Caution Jam? Resistance is futile.
